Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the Flexible Arm Magnetic Base for Dial Test Indicators used for?
A: This magnetic base with a 360° adjustable flexible arm is designed to securely mount and position dial test indicators on machine tools, lathes, milling machines, or any ferromagnetic surface. It allows machinists, engineers, and automotive technicians to take accurate dimensional measurements in tight or hard-to-reach areas with ease.
Q: What surfaces does the magnetic base work on?
A: The permanent magnetic base is designed to adhere to ferromagnetic (iron/steel) surfaces, making it ideal for use on machine tool tables, lathe beds, CNC machines, and automotive work surfaces. It will not attach to non-magnetic materials such as aluminum or plastic workpieces.
Q: Is this base compatible with all dial test indicators?
A: This flexible arm magnetic base is compatible with most standard dial test indicators, particularly those with a 0.8 mm measurement range. Its universal design makes it a versatile addition to most precision measurement setups in professional workshops or home machine shops.
Q: How do I set up the Flexible Arm Magnetic Base?
A: Setup is simple — place the magnetic base on any ferromagnetic surface, secure your dial test indicator to the flexible arm, then adjust the arm's 360° range to position the indicator exactly where you need it. No special tools or complex assembly are required.
